The point of...I see where you're coming from. <br /><br />The point of this session, though, was to throw together a group of people from different walks of life, so each person could give a different take on the idea I was fleshing out. A few of them are in the business, a few of them are not. <br /><br />We had a great time and they offered some wonderfully innovative ideas that I will be using. <br /><br />And speaking of the trust factor to bang out ideas, I will ask complete strangers if an idea I have would be a movie they would go and see. If I can hold a stranger's interest, then how am I going to hold the interest of a paying movie goer? <br /><br />Not everyone I know wants to be in a movie. Which is even better. It's a free focus group. And they can see holes where you can't... they can tell you if what you have written is suspensful or just plain stupid. Everyone needs feedback. <br /><br />Like I said, this was a great session and I will have a LOT more. :)ScreenwriterChichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01022801409843901860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6469766193470249084.post-6731864690673669212011-09-09T17:32:26.860-05:002011-09-09T17:32:26.860-05:00I'd make short films if my friends were reliab...I'd make short films if my friends were reliable.<br /><br />Likewise, I don't know a lot of people I can trust to bang ideas off or even to read the finished product.<br /><br />To tell the truth, if I had five people who wanted to be in a movie I'd come up with something to suit them rather than work on a script with them.Richard Leland Nealhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04096919816867820794noreply@blogger.com
